You are validated...have a nice day.

Soothing balm.

I've never had a problem with Mizzou. One of my best friends is a MU grad, and I have always felt MU fans were pretty decent, balanced folks. But the vast majority of you have become as uppity about this whole conference thing as a KU fan in basketball season. That is distasteful. You want to go, fine. It's great the SEC is interested, but there is no need to rub it in the other school's faces. So as a fanbase, you have lost a lot of respect from me (and a lot of people). But as far as the university goes, I don't have an issue. I do think you owe it to yourselves and the rest of the conference to make an expeditious decision, that's about it.

If you look into my posts, I am quick to point out revisionist history and distortion of facts, regardless of the poster and topic. I will admit to sometimes trolling some of you. I find it a bit funny some of you don't really know how many people your stadium holds, and I've definitely poked a stick over that.

Hopefully if Missouri does go to the SEC, they won't live vicariously through the rest of the conference, like most of the other conference members do.

I'm absolutely living vicariously through a 3-4 and 7th place football team.

I continue not to care and just wanted to remind you of that again.

I don't think Mizzou fans have been all the uppiity, given the amount of shit poured on by the KU/KSU/BIG XII community. Most Mizzou fans in this thread are cautious optimistic. We know the road ahead is tough, but have faith and hope that Mizzou's brightest days are ahead. This seems to really bother you and others...you can't stand that Mizzou might just do something great. That is fine and that is your right, but don't expect Mizzou fans to take it lying down. You keep dishing out the shit you call facts, expect to get some response from the Mizzou supporters.

I look at your posts and see nothing but uppity and butt hurt.

It's far and away the most annoying thing in college sports. They think if one team wins then all 12 teams get a trophy, and they even print and wear conference shirts that say "SEC".

You can't have a real rivalry with someone today and then root for them to win the next day.

This is true. And the conferences encourage it as well.

Thank god for the SEC........this Big 12 schedule is brutal.

This thread has just been diagnosed with HIV...

It started with HIV, Saul created it..

I think the SEC has done a remarkable job of branding itself. If you want to play big time college football, you go to the SEC. Its a huge recruiting advantage to all of the teams. Even the teams who have been doormats in the conference have improved significantly during the SEC's surge to dominance over the last several years. Even teams like Kentucky and Mississippi State have had a lot of recent success.

As a fan of an ACC school, I can tell you that my happiest day of the year comes when both UNC and Duke are eliminated from the NCAA tournament.

Its because you're reclining beneath my balls.
